Liu Shaoxuan took the key and opened the vault door.
All the accumulated assets and treasures of the Liu family were stored here.
When the martial artists present saw what was inside, their eyes lit up.
Martial artists cultivate through wealth, heaven, and earth, with wealth placed first. This is not without reason. A person's potential is limited. If one relies solely on their own efforts to cultivate, without any heavenly treasures to supplement, their potential can be completely ruined.
They could have become Grandmaster-level experts, but due to a lack of resources, they might have exhausted their potential prematurely.
Everyone understood this, which was why they fought for resources without reservation.
"There are so many good things! Then we don't need to be polite with him. Let's act now!"
Seeing those people swarm into the Liu family's treasure vault, they soon found a box of pills, as white as jade, at the very back.
"Found it! This medicine emits an extremely rich fragrance. It must be the medicine Lin Xiaotian refined for him. I believe with these medicines, our strength will definitely break through significantly. I'm sure everyone present will also be very happy to see these medicines."
There were too many medicines in that box.
It was enough for each of them to have one, and the medicines clearly had different effects.
"Everyone can see that the effects of these medicines might be different, as we can tell from their appearance. I believe everyone present will not act rashly because of these medicines. Let's each choose one casually."
"The extra ones will be considered a bonus for the strongest among us."
The Liu family patriarch watched as some of them took the medicine on the spot, and a sinister smile gradually appeared on his face.
He did not vocalize his laughter, but his expression revealed his inner thoughts.
He was laughing heartily, and also seeking revenge.
Soon, some people felt something was wrong. They fell to the ground with two shots, even bleeding from all seven orifices.
By the time the martial artists present realized something was amiss, it was too late.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief. They had never imagined they would be tricked to death like this.
The few who survived were also suffering from different poisoning symptoms from the medicines, which was why they were not dead yet, but agony was evident in their eyes. The Liu family became the target of their rage.
At this moment, Lin Xiaotian walked along the main road with a smile, with True Master Bai Mei standing beside him.
"Mr. Lin, regardless of anything, these medicines came from your refinement, which means I owe you a tremendous favor."
"I never considered the Liu family people. I investigated what kind of people they were before I came. I have no grudges or entanglements with them. In the end, I only owe you my gratitude."
As he said this, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.
How could Lin Xiaotian not see what he was thinking? He smiled and said, "Old Bai, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Don't hesitate."
"Are you perhaps wanting to ask me if the medicines are problematic?"
"Will you have any adverse reactions after taking them?"
Although True Master Bai Mei was a bit embarrassed, he immediately nodded.
He knew very well that obtaining the medicine so easily could not be a good thing.
He even suspected that the medicine might have been tampered with.
Lin Xiaotian smiled brightly and said, "Boss, you can use it with confidence. This medicine is definitely not fake, and after you take it, your strength will definitely break through quickly. However, when you take this medicine..."
He did not finish his sentence.
But he elongated his tone.
Hearing this, True Master Bai Mei's eyebrows twitched involuntarily.
He knew there was indeed a trap.
A wry smile appeared on his face, and he said helplessly, "Mr. Lin, whatever your request, you can tell me directly."
"As long as I can do it, I will not hesitate at all."
Lin Xiaotian smiled and pointed to Ye Wantong beside him.
"I need you to protect her safety for three years."
"After you take this medicine, you will indeed reach the Grandmaster realm, but there is a small flaw in this medicine."
"This flaw is that the medicine contains a trace of poison."
"And this poison is like a maggot on the bone. Without my antidote, there will definitely be major problems."
"This might not be discovered until three years later."
"If I were to trigger this poison prematurely, you would die immediately. However, I believe in your character, so I will give you the antidote in advance."
"If you agree to protect her for three years, I will not only give you the antidote but also a Heart-Protecting Pill."
True Master Bai Mei had expected some unreasonable request, but it turned out to be merely protecting this young girl for three years. It was like a pie falling from the sky.
He had helped people before. After all, he cultivated for resources, and he was not a person who killed innocent people or had no conscience.
He had his own bottom line.
Traditional morality was more stringent than current laws and had always constrained his bottom line.
At this moment, he agreed without hesitation: "Mr. Lin, please rest assured, as long as I am alive, I will never let this little girl have any safety issues."
"I will fall before the enemy steps over my corpse."
Lin Xiaotian chuckled, "Where is it so dangerous? If there is a great trouble, you can call me directly. With my strength, I haven't found an opponent yet. In fact, I haven't even found an equal match so far."
"I especially hope to find a powerful opponent, but alas, the heights are lonely, and the summit is cold!"
True Master Bai Mei did not show any disdain. In his eyes, there was only admiration and ardor.
When Lin Xiaotian's aura was unleashed, he had already felt Lin Xiaotian's strength, which was an absolute power that left him no room for resistance.
Ye Wantong felt touched, and her gaze towards Lin Xiaotian was filled with more tenderness and affection.
"Look at you being so proud. True Master Bai Mei is begging you. Look at his age, he's old enough to be your grandfather."
Lin Xiaotian smiled and said, "Girl, aren't you going too far? I'm finding a bodyguard for you."
"And I've prepaid the salary. Ask Old Bai, how much would a Heart-Protecting Pill cost?"
"In his current condition, without a Heart-Protecting Pill, dare he break through his cultivation realm?"
